Two things.

1) Could I adapt the Firebrand to my Gates to make flaming Hellgates of fiery death for smaller enemies?

2) There's a group skype chat and nobody told me? D: professional.protagonist for invite!

I think that the Gates magic is too complicated to be enhanced by the somewhat primal Firebrand Trigger.  It could make it so that going through the gate burns it, perhaps, but it won't link to any extraplanar realms of torment.

Sure.  Just give me your handle and I'll toss you an invite.
